There are things that can be done to correct our course as a nation, but they won't get done because of our politics. Here are my suggestions:
1-Announce to the country that starting in 2020, all Social Security benefits will be reduced by 10 percent. People would have time to plan for this.
2-Beginning in 2018, 65 becomes the early age for collecting your benefit.
3-By executive order, the President instructs the Treasury Secretary immediately, to disburse funds to every state with a defined infrastructure need for the purpose of fixing and building. This is national emergency and the States would use Federal funds to hire the workers needed to complete the work.
4-Eliminate Medicare for all those Americans who earn 5 million dollars or more.
5-Sell enough gold to cover the next 5 years of interest payments on our debt so that the word default is eliminated from the vernacular of our politics.
6-The President should announce his support for a flat tax rate in this country. Eliminate all deductions. Set the rate at 15%. Reduce it to 10? in any year there is a surplus. Raise it to 20% in any year there is a deficit.
There are many more suggestions but Congress in on vacation and the President is campaigning. Where are you Americans for reason and truth?
